    Checked your fuse box? High beams usually always go on VL's, mines all nice and fried up in the fuse box. That'd be the first place I'd check!

    ive checked it and notice that both low beam and high beam fuse have melted and someone has wired in two need fuses. maybe the high beam fuse is gone. didn't get to much checking done, will have a better look tomorrow.

    also u get very erattic behaviour if the plugs on the lights themselves as in the large loom plug for the whole light setup either side.(not the individual globe plugs)

    i had crazy problems like yours which is was my left plug was a bit loose. unplug them and spray in some inox/wd40 etc and c how u go.

    let us know your outcome...

    if not either of the things mentioned it could be your switch itself..

    i just replaced mine5 days ago in less than 10 mins and cost me $25
